RICS Awards 2017 North West

RICS Awards 2017 North West – Fingers crossed for AFC Fylde

We’re delighted to announce that Mill Farm Sports Village has been shortlisted as a finalist of RICS Awards 2017 Northwest. The scheme is in the running for the prestigious award under the category of tourism and leisure.

The RICS Awards are regarded as the premier property and construction awards in the country. Showcasing the achievements of the most inspirational regional initiatives and developments in land, property, construction and the environment.

Our habitat contracting team was involved in prepping the site for the pre-development ecological mitigation. We worked closely with the ecological consultant to install amphibian fencing. In addition, we also undertook a phased process of vegetation clearance to aid with species translocation.

The move to the new stadium is proving to be a real success for the AFC Fylde team. The club which is affectionately also known as the ‘Coasters’ lifted the National League North trophy title with a 4-2 victory over Worcester City on Saturday 2nd May 2017. Especially relevant as it was the clubs 500th game as AFC Fylde.

This year’s regional award ceremony will take place at the iconic Titanic Hotel at Stanley Dock, Liverpool 19 May 2017.
